FAQ

Maybe you have a few questions. That’s okay; most people do. So here’s a quick collection of some of the questions people ask us… along with our answers. If you still have a question, don’t hesitate to contact us (or give us a call) and we’ll be happy to answer it for you.

What does Reliance Recovery do?

We are an organization that specializes in finding and recovering lost assets. Some of the sources of money that we locate are from Tax and Mortgage Foreclosure auctions, and State’s Unclaimed surplus funds. We research the information and then contact the rightful owners to help them get their Funds back themselves!

Why is the money available?

For example, in the case of real estate that was owned, Properties are sold either at foreclosure or tax sale auction. Many times the amount owed to lien holders or creditors gets overpaid to the government and they take it if no one claims it. In cases of Bankruptcy, an old discharged bankruptcy can sometimes yield funds. There are many more sources. We would be more than happy to explain where your funds were generated from.

How much is my claim? Where is it?

We know how much the claim is but need your approval to pinpoint the exact location of those funds within the government agency. Once you sign, we will complete the drill-down process to identify the unclaimed fund account and immediately file to get it released on your behalf.

How much does it cost to receive my claim?

We work on a contingency basis and are only paid a minor percentage when and if we successfully recover the funds for you. Once you sign our contingency fee agreement, we’ll cover all the costs of retrieving those funds on your behalf including but not limited to Attorney’s fees, filing fees, court costs, etc. We do this every day and NEVER charge you a penny out of pocket to get you your money.

Can’t I get my money on my own?

The governmental agencies we audit typically DO NOT post these unclaimed funds accounts online. You are welcome to search state unclaimed funds websites, but if you find funds there, these are not the funds we’re informing you about.

How long will it take to receive my claim?

Every Government agency, Bank, or Private organization handles the claims process differently. Depending on the local rules of law and the type of claim it is typically anywhere from a minimum of 10 Days to 30-90 Days on average from the filing date. Some cases may take even more time, however, we have seen many cases get paid out quicker.

Where do I begin?

Contact us by phone or email with your situation and one of our helpful and friendly associates will immediately help you with your claim. Once you sign — we get to work! We will keep you informed throughout the process, from submission to follow-up to the official release of funds. Transparency and trust are how we operate.

Is this a scam?

NO. The concept of lost or forgotten funds or assets has been around for a long time. The federal, state, and local governments as well as private banks, HOA, and others hold over a staggering $50 Billion Dollars in unclaimed funds. Yes, that’s where we come in. We do not charge you any money upfront for our services. We work on a contingency basis and are only paid when and if we successfully recover the funds for you. WE WILL NEVER ASK YOU FOR ANY PAYMENT INFORMATION.
